Oh come on, when I had a problem with neighbours accidently binning my mail, I didn't leave a passive agressive note I loving went upstairs and knocked on the door and when no-one opened it went and got half a pilchard I had in the freezer and slid it under the door. Turns out they had actually died that day (dude was like 66 and was on disability due to heart problems) so the stench of rotting fish actually alerted the police sooner. I should of got a medal for that or something.

A quick google search says McDonalds cup sizes are 16oz, 21oz, and 32oz, which is about 480ml, 630ml, and 960ml.

Those look live movie theater cups to me, notice the distinct lack of any McDonald's logo any of the "American McDonald's" cups?

edit: The sad thing is I have seen "small" cups that big at movie theaters before. America, not quite as bad as the rest of the world thinks we are, but close.

Yeah that's shifted by one, at a US McDonald's a large is indeed 32 oz (946 ml). Of course that's spot-on for pretty much every other fast food restaurant. But as far as I know only In-n-Out uses the paper cups that big, because they don't fit in cupholders. Every other place else uses plastic cups with narrower bases.

There needs to be a version of :eng101: with a double chin.

Here have a funny place name due to cultural differences.

How do you drink an entire litre of Coke in one sitting? And with a meal, as well.

You don't, hopefully. Those big cups can fit in a car's cup holder well enough, so usually at least part of them's saved for the road rather than gulped down at a meal.

That's not really... how long of drives do you take that you need a litre of coke to keep your spirits up? Like I'm gonna take a three hour car trip next week and my driver drat sure isn't taking a litre of coke along. Is it just the hope that holding in a piss will at least keep you from falling asleep?

This avatar helped buy Lowtax a new skeleton.

Last time I took a drive to Stockholm (approx 4-6 hours depending on traffic and weather) I drank a 500ml bottle of coke, a 500 ml bottle of energy drink, a 500 ml bottle of mineral water and I forget but something else hwen I ate about mid way through the journey so yeah, I can see someone buying 1l of coke for a long car journey.

I also drank something similar when I needed to head up to Vaasa from another town, which ended up being a ten hour trip. Sometimes you gotta drive far, man, and this is in pretty small countries, I can imagine it being worse in the US.

I hope he didn't care about that pizza.
In this case a "long car trip" means about 30 minutes' commute. We Americans don't know what water is, and all our coffee comes as an ingredient in $7 Starbucks milkshakes.

If you grow up eating food like this you get conditioned to it, so it's only going to get worse and the sizes are only going to get bigger. :(

I don't know about the rest of you, but I cram the cup with ice when I pour a drink. A couple of weeks ago, I got curious, and measured how much liquid was in a cup I was drinking from. The result was that the actual liquid was less than half of the cup's contents. A liter on a long car ride seems normal to me, and less than half that after ice seems super reasonable. According the Mayo Clinic website, the average total beverage intake for a man should be about three liters per day. If you're rolling 960ml deep with McDonalds, and even 1/3rd of that is ice, you're only 20% of the way to your daily drinking quota.

Clearly, you shouldn't be getting all your water in the form of cola, but all this "Oh, my GOD, an entire LITER," seems pretty ridiculous. Just don't drink sugary syrup water day in and day out.

Edit: 30 minutes definitely does not qualify as "long" in my little scenario, but it isn't like the soda ceases to be drinkable when you reach your destination. You don't have to shotgun it all in the car.

Generally don't as people said above. I get huge drinks to last me the rest of the afternoon at work. Also my family makes tremendous car rides once or twice a year (16 hours) so buying huge drinks and drinking them until the next stop several hours down the road becomes a survival rationing situation.

No.
That would be the daily intake of fluids including all the water that is in the food you eat. The water in the food that you eat contributes a significant amount. It doesn't mean you need to get that from things you drink from a cup.
